About this Event
Ever wondered what happens behind the scenes at Saturday Night Live? Even if you have no writing or comedy experience, you will be writing strong comedy sketches in no time!
In Sketch 101, students will learn the basics of sketch comedy. Over the six week course, we'll explore the principles of sketch structure, scene dynamics and characterization, and learn a variety of sketch formats.
Each week, students will get to put the lessons into practice with writing assignments, and will have the opportunity to give and receive feedback in an open writers' room workshop format. Classes every Tuesday, October 21st - December 2nd from 7:00-9:30pm. (NO CLASS 11/25)
The class will conlcude with a showcase on the afternoon Saturday, December 6th (exact time to be determined).
Please read our and before signing up for a class or workshop.
